We’re just a month away from the country’s grandest celebration, so join in the festivities and secure the best hotel spots to take in the party without having to battle the crowd on the ground
The excitement in the air is unmistakable as Singapore gears up for its grandest birthday celebration yet: SG50. The lead-up to the big day has seen the country’s calendar filled with special events and activities to commemorate the landmark occasion from museum exhibitions to food festivals, concerts and sporting events.
Singapore always puts up an outstanding show on National Day but this being the Golden Jubilee year, locals and tourists alike can expect an over-the-top patriotic display that is not to be missed if you’re in the city on August 9.
Thinking of joining in the festivities? (we think you should!) it’s good to start planning early if you want to beat the crowd and avoid disappointment. Of course there are the usual suspects to head to if you want to catch the fireworks, parade and aerial display but those wanting to take in the party without being sardined and jostled about would find a hotel staycation right in the heart of the action around the Padang and Marina Bay a better option.
With the help of online travel manager KAYAK.sg, we’ve rounded up the top 5 hotels with the best views from which you can catch a glimpse of all the spectacular SG50 celebrations on display. But remember to move fast as rooms are selling out for the occasion as we speak!
